The Marine Corps veteran accused of killing two Kissimmee police officers in August likely won’t go to trial until 2019.

Everett Glenn Miller was in the Osceola County Courthouse for a brief status hearing Tuesday. He faces the death penalty if convicted of first-degree murder of Sgt. Richard “Sam” Howard and Officer Matthew Baxter.

Miller’s attorney, Edwin Mills, and the prosecutor, Assistant State Attorney Ryan Williams of Ocala State Attorney Brad King’s office, said they both had other capital cases set for trial in 2018 that will require a lot of their time. Circuit Judge Greg Tynan agreed not to set a trial date yet, and said he will schedule status hearings to check on their preparations for trial every few months.

Miller’s family filled one side of the courtroom Tuesday. Baxter’s widow, Florida Department of Law Enforcement Special Agent Sadia Baxter, sat at the front of the courtroom gallery.
